mondays menu, wheat lasagne rolls

I love lasagne.   In fact, I love all things pasta.   This is a switch up on the traditional pan lasagne.    I like these for several reasons.  One, you don’t have to brake the bank with enough ingredients to fill a three layer casserole.   They are really easy to make.  They look cool and provide perfect portions for one serving.  I do the recipe with a few shortcuts.  I cook the wheat lasagne noodles the night before and keep them in the fridge.  Additionally to make life easier, I doctor up the already yummy Rao’s Marinara with sauteed carrot, sweet onion, fresh basil and several splashes of what ever chardonnay I happen to be sipping.  You can add Cooking Light Bechemal as an option.   Roll em up and enjoy! xoxo

Cooking Light Bechamel Sauce recipe

Directions:

Cook the pasta the night before and place in the fridge.   Chop the onion, grate the carrot and saute in olive oil until brown and reduced.  Add a little chardonnay and cook about 5 minutes, add the marinara and fresh cut basil.  Brown ground sirloin, drain and add to sauce.   Spread the ricotta cheese on the cooked lasagna pasta, add a meat sauce and mozzarella cheese.   This is where it gets a little messy, so don’t be afraid to get dirty lovie’s.  Roll layered pasta up like a yoga mat.  Stuff into parchment lined large muffin pan.   Optional add bechamel sauce around edges.  Cook 350` for about 30 minutes.  Serve with garlic brad and salad.
